Johns/Donner’s “Action Comics” #844 Sells Out, 2nd Printing To Come

After a quick sell out at DC Comics, ACTION COMICS #844 is being rushed back to press for a second printing. This issue features the debut of the new creative team of writers Geoff Johns & Richard Donner and artist Adam Kubert.

“It’s been an absolute honor to be a part of ACTION COMICS with Dick, Adam, (colorist) Dave Stewart, (letterer) Rob Leigh, (editor) Matt Idelson and (associate editor) Nachie Castro,” says Johns. “I’m incredibly proud of the work we’re all doing and thankful for the retailers and readers giving our run on ACTION a go.”

ACTION COMICS #844 Second Printing (OCT068020) features a recolored version of the original cover by Adam Kubert, and is scheduled to arrive in stores on December 6.
